CookStarter

Inspiration

• We end up eating outside a lot!
• We are nearly-broke grad students :(
• To cook, we have no idea where to begin!
• We are so not alone :)

What it does

• So it runs alongside your Google Assistant, which means virtually any smart phone / Google Home devices
• Considering what you have in your inventory, and your food preferences (vegetarian?), gives you awesome recipes
• Also consider your cost/time availability (grad student priorities),

How we built it

Python + Requests + Flask + Google Actions

Challenges we ran into

• Had to learn to use a whole bunch of APIs overnight!

Accomplishments that we're proud of
